Transmusic Airwaves

It’s a HALLOWEEN FESTIVAL weekend on this year’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES and I’ve got two Halloween shows from the ‘vault’ (from 2013 and 2014) already available for your listening pleasure so now all that remains is TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES 11th Annual Halloween Special (Episode #487).

It’s arrived! IT’S Arrived! IT’S ARRIVED! (just like Dr. Frankenstein exclaimed when the monster stirred from the table...although come to think of it, 'ALIVE' was the term he used). Now go to your favorite listening device and press those dirty nubby little fingers on PLAY… and start listening!

Today’s show will feature a vast assortment of new music released over the recent past. You’ll hear new music from BRIAN ENO, THE EELS, THE MARS VOLTA, BETH ORTON, T-BONE BURNETT (and friends), plus slightly older goodies from GOLEMS OF THE RED PLANET, ALLEN RAVENSTINE, and THE BREAKERS, with even older cuts from THE CRAMPS, BLACK SABBATH, FAIRPORT CONVENTION’S ‘After Halloween’ (sung by Sandy Denny), and VINCE GUARALDI ‘S ‘It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown.’ There’s a variety of orchestral soundtracks from films like Poltergeist, Beetlejuice, and the ‘Transylvanian Lullaby’ from Young Frankenstein mixed throughout as well.

Now grab those Kit Kat’s, popcorn balls, and boxes of milk duds, as start passing them out because your entertainment has been taken care of!

Transmusic Airwaves Presents (From The Vault) The 2013 Halloween Special (Episode #36) which aired on October 25, 2013 over SFCR/KUSF-In-Exile.  Below is the program notes and complete playlist!

It’s that time of year again dear FIENDS....er...I mean Friends. Time to grab the shovel, a rusty pick axe from the shed, mama’s favorite carving knife, 30 feet of bailing wire, a roll of duck tape, and lubricate the chain saw for some fall “trimmings.” 

Now invite over that bothersome family member; you know, the one that’s always nagging you about “this and that,” and sit back and enjoy the 2013 HALLOWEEN SPECIAL on this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (#36).

We’ll begin the festivities with scenes from the horror classic “Motel Hell” and,intersperse it with “pieces” of music from PINK FLOYD, DANIEL KNOX, PORK TORNADO, and THE BOBS before sauntering over to that haunted “House on theHill,” and taking a “short-lived” shower while listening to BERNARD HERMANN’S score from “Psycho.” Gives you goose bumps just thinking about it, doesn’t it?

Later on we’ll force “old blabber mouth” to listen to music inspired by “Night of the Living Dead” (and dialogue too!), be attacked by “Blood Sucking Monkey’s from West Mifflin, Pennsylvania” (courtesy of SCTV’s Count Floyd), before turning into a Werewolf with songs by HAWKWIND, THE FRANATIC’S, and FRANK ZAPPA to help in the transformation.

And what about that annoying family member? Well you’ve got over half the show left by now so why not make sure the bindings made with that bailing wire are really tight and that cool lime green duck tape is securely slapped over the “pie hole.” Now where did you put that large plastic “drop cloth?” Things could get really messy ya know.

NEW PROGRAM LENGTH BEGINS THIS WEEK!

After over a decade, this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #486) will mark a significant change in the length of the program, as I’ve decided to reduce it by an hour so I can continue to bring you great ‘freeform’ podcasts in a timely manner. As I get older it’s become more difficult to make these programs up to my own high standards for the full three hours and I want to continue to do what I love to do, without adding undue stress on myself in the process. 

You’ll still get everything you expect from me, with new releases, nuggets from the ‘vault,’ and assorted genres ranging from world music to spoken word all blended into thirty minute sets (just four of them from now on).

For new releases this week I’ve got BRIAN ENO, THE MARS VOLTA, BETH ORTON, DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE, SZUN WAVES, JULIAN LAGE, PORCUPINE TREE, ADRIAN BELEW, BIG THIEF, BEIRUT, and more from the Tuvan folk metal band THE HU.

On this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES I’ve decided to revisit my early programming from the past and make available a program from June 1, 2012 that was heard over the internet radio station KUSF-In-Exile in San Francisco. 

The program at the time was called Vicotin Popsicle’s and it’s ‘freeform’ concept was beginning to jell into what it would later become by combining new releases, various selected items out of the ‘vault,’ and several songs covering a specific theme (in today’s case, the telephone) appearing occasionally. 

On this edition there’s music from BRIAN ENO, THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION, JACK WHITE, D’GARY, MODEST MOUSE, and GLENN GOULD plays a movement from Bach’s ‘Goldberg Variations.’ The final set centers around the telephone theme with pieces from URBAN VERBS, KALI BALHU, LOVE, and JAMES WHITE & THE BLACKS.  The playlist is provided below:

It’s time for another weekly TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #485) as we head straight on into October’s second week with shorter days, cooler nights, and fall festivities all settling into place. There’s playoff baseball in Cleveland with one of MLB’s youngest and most exciting teams taking center stage, a bustling local music scene, and carved pumpkins beginning to appear everywhere. I’ve got a great program to compliment everything as well.

In the new release category I’ve added DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE, SZUN WAVES, NEIL YOUNG (live at Royce Hall 1971), JULIAN LAGE (with Bill Frisell), PORCUPINE TREE, and MAPACHE to the current list with ADRIAN BELEW, BIG THIEF, GLENN LAZEAR, BEIRUT, THE SPACE LADY, and LIBRARIANS WITH HICKEYS already on it.

From the ‘vault’ there’s PETER GABRIEL, RICHARD THOMPSON, HUGH HOPPER, ULTIMATE SPINACH, and everyone’s favorite, TIN HUEY, intermixed with the new pieces. There’s oddly intriguing tracks from MOONDOG, SHPONGLE and NEGATIVLAND, plus international items from JUSTIN ADAMS & JULDEN CAMARA, Sudan’s ABDEL GADIR SALIM, and ZULYA KAMALOVA (Tarter/Tasmania). 

Just get yourself a beverage, something to snack on, and plug the show in between all your other activities for added enjoyment!

On this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #484) I’ve got several special segments throughout the program guaranteed to snap those neurons in the back of your brain stem to attention. 

It all begins with NICK MASON’S SAUCERFUL OF SECRETS doing the Pink Floyd anthem, ‘Astronomy Domine,’ and serving it three different ways. First, of course, there’s Nick’s version, followed by other songs by PAVEMENT and THEE OH SEES, then GARY LUCAS’ version (followed by material from PJ HARVEY and THE BEACH BOYS (from ‘Smiley Smile’), and finally THE CLAYPOOL LENNON DELIRIUM’S version, preceded by the band SLOWDIVE.

You’ll have barely caught your breath when the second set arrives with ADRIAN BELEW and Can’s HOLGAR CZUKAY both storytelling in song, THE SPACE LADY (covering ‘I Had Too Much To Dream Last Night’), instrumentals from SUFJAN STEVENS, STEREOLAB, and BEIRUT, and finishing up with CAMEL’S ‘Song Within A Song.’

I’ll play music from local bands GLENN LAZEAR and LIBRARIANS WITH HICKEYS, honor the legacy of PHARAOH SANDERS and ANTON FIER, and return in the final hour to serve up another legendary song three ways. 

That song, ‘I Talk To The Wind,’ will be played by KING CRIMSON (but with Fairport Convention’s JUDY DYBLE on vocals), ASTRALASIA, and CAMPER VAN CHADBOURNE in the fifth set, with new tracks from THE SMILE, YO LA TENGO, and CHRISSIE HYNDE, and finishing with, appropriately, THE MOTHERS OF INVENTION from (what else?) ‘We’re Only In It For The Money.’

I’ll stop here and let you be surprised by the rest of it.

As we begin the first week of fall I’ve planned another great three hours of music on TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #483) to help you settle in for cooler weather, changing colors, and translucent skies. A great pumpkin, an echo of a distant sun, and plenty of sonic surprises are all in store for you today via a multitude of new releases, a legendary ‘vault’ masterpiece, and more musical moves than you can rake into a pile.

I’ll start off with the BONZO DOG BAND’S ‘Intro And Outro,’ then surround it with new tracks from ADRIAN BELEW, BEIRUT, BIG THIEF, and THE SPACE LADY who’s rendition of ‘Fly Like An Eagle’ is on it’s own worth tuning in for. 

A rarely heard version of VINCE GUARALDI’S ‘Linus And Lucy’ from ‘It’s The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown’ starts the next set, with an eclectic mix of music from THE GERMS (space punk), DUNGEN (Swedish Prog Metal), JOE RAINY (Native American electronica) and WOOD AND FIRE (Yunnan Acid Folk) moving the music along. 

By the fourth set it’s time for that ‘vault’ masterpiece as I’ll present PINK FLOYD’S ‘Echoes’ and have pieces from HENRY COW and THOM YORKE immersed into it in honor of Nick Mason’s upcoming show at the Akron Civic Theater. 

There’s a whole slew of new stuff as well from the likes of MANSUR, GLENN LAZEAR, LIBRARIANS WITH HICKEY'S, JON BALKE, DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE (doing a Yoko Ono track), T-BONE BURNETT & FRIENDS, and CHRISSIE HYNDE (covering Dylan).

You know you’re getting older by the day when you get so involved in one project that you completely forget a weekly task that involves writing up the program description for this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #482). Here’s what’s planned on this show.

During today’s first set, I’ve got the amazing new T-BONE BURNETT project, ‘The Invisible Light: Spells’ (with JAY BELLEROSE & KEEFER CIANCIA) to get things started. It’s electronica meets beat poetry and unlike anything he’s ever done so I’ll start the show with it, then follow it with THE SLITS, THE ROLLING STONES (doing Gomper’), acknowledge the passing of jazz great RAMSEY LEWIS with his interpretation of The Beatles ‘Blackbird,’ then follow that with the latest from MANSUR (Netherland mystic electronica) and finish the set with GLENN LAZEAR’S latest.

The second set combines SIGUR ROS with WAS (NOT WAS), ANGELO BADALAMENTI, and two version’s of John Zorn’s ‘Hutriel,’ one from GOLEMS OF THE RED PLANET and the other from BANQUET OF THE STARS, plus another new track from THE MOUNTAIN GOATS.

And if your not drooling from those first two sets then you will be when I devote the fourth set to some of my favorite compositions of ‘world music’ from such artists as GEOFFREY ORYEMA, MORY KANTE, BASSEKOU KOUYATE & NGONI BA, D’GARY, and TELEK. 

There’s more new tracks from THOM YORKE, OUTRONAUT, DAVID BOWIE, and ADRIAN BELEW, local works by THE NEPTUNE'S, and ROBERT WHEELER & ALLEN RAVENSTINE, and vault goodies from THE DOORS, ALBERT COLLINS, and CAPTAIN BEEFHEART.

There’s plenty to crow about on this week’s TRANSMUSIC AIRWAVES (Episode #481) with local artists GLENN LAZEAR , THE BLACK KEYS, (both from their new releases), CHRIS BUTLER, 15-60-75 (THE NUMBERS BAND), and DAVID THOMAS & TWO PALE BOYS all incorporated into a different set today and surrounded by a diverse selection of other artists they’d probably enjoy actually hanging out with.

The Black Keys get comfy with FAIRPORT CONVENTION, STOMU YAMASH’TA’S GO PROJECT, and another new track from THE MOUNTAIN GOATS. Chris Butler gets to chill with BIG WALNUTS YONDER, FRANK ZAPPA & THE MOTHERS (from ‘Overnight Sensation’ no less), EUGENE CHADBOURNE, and THOM YORKE’S latest. 

Glenn Lazear gets chummy with THE BEATLES and XTC (who wouldn’t if given the chance), 15-60-75 (The Numbers Band) holds their own with GILLI SMYTH, JOHN CALE, and MEDESKI, MARTIN, & WOOD and David Thomas & Two Pale Boys raises a ruckus with CRACKER, JAMES, and NICK DRAKE.

You want to know who plays on the other great music you’ll hear today? Well, a little birdie told me there’s more new DAVID BOWIE, OUTRONAUT, and DEERHOOF (from the Yoko Ono tribute album), plus pieces from FUTURE ISLANDS, PETER BLEGVAD, and THE FIXX. I’ve even got the Chinese folk metal band, MOQUI, from the latest ‘Rough Guide To The Music Of Yunnan’ to start everything off. Put on your spats and knickers, harness your buggy, and wander your way into another three hours of musical goodness.
